group them according to the sheet they are classified into.

What is It
Architectural Working Drawing
Structural drawing
A type of engineering drawing, is a plan or set of plans and details for how a
building or other structure will be built. Structural drawings are generally prepared by
registered professional engineers, and based on information provided by architectural
drawings.
The following terminologies are used on structural plans. Be familiar with them
and look forward to meeting them.
